    In a statement, the corporation confirmed that viewers have complained about the way Syed Masood (Marc Elliott) had slammed down the Qu'ran.


    Last week, the BBC dismissed complaints that an ongoing EastEnders storyline featuring Lucas Johnson (Don Gilet) is offensive to Christians.

    The BBC thrives on complaints. The publicity often rises viewer ratings.

    Aaa... Eastenders, I'm amazed thats still going to be honest.
    Maybe they should move it like Eldorado - to the bin.

    Top O de morning to you
    Gerry McCrae was the shopkeeper in Kilmoneen, the Irish village where the Flaherty family lived.

    Gerry was a married man, but was secretly having an affair with Mary Flaherty. He told Mary he was leaving his wife to be with her, but Mary ended their relationship publicly, and the local bartender, Patrick, heard their argument and told Mary's uncle, Eamonn. Eamonn couldn't wait to tell his violent, alcoholic father Sean, which led to Mary's departure from the village, scared of what Sean would do to her.

    Oh how thrilling.
